FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 76

[CS Docket No. 98-61; FCC 99-13]


1998 Biennial Regulatory Review--``Annual Report of Cable 
Television Systems,'' Form 325

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; announcement of effective date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission's amendments to 47 CFR 76.403 which contain 
information collection requirements became effective on July 1, 1999. 
These amendments which were published in the Federal Register on May 
25, 1999 relate to revising and streamlining the Form 325, ``Annual 
Report of Cable Television Systems,'' which solicits basic operational 
information from cable television systems.

DATES: The amendments to 47 CFR 76.403 published at 64 FR 28106 (May 
25, 1999) became effective on July 1, 1999.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Kosar, Consumer Protection and 
Competition Division, Cable Services Bureau at (202) 418-1053.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    1. On March 31, 1999, the Commission released a Report and Order 
regarding the Form 325, a summary of which was published in the Federal 
Register. See 64 FR 28106 (May 25, 1999). The Report and Order modifies 
and streamlines the Form 325 and reduces the number of cable system 
operators required to file the form. Because the rule imposed modified 
information collection requirements, the amendments to 47 CFR 76.403 
could not become effective until approved by the Office of Management 
and Budget (``OMB''). OMB approved the rule changes on July 1, 1999.
    2. The Federal Register summary stated that the Commission would 
publish a document announcing the

[[Page 60132]]

effective date of the rule changes requiring OMB approval. The 
amendments to 47 CFR 76.403 became effective July 1, 1999. This 
publication satisfies the statement that the Commission would publish a 
document announcing the effective date of the rule changes requiring 
OMB approval.
